This is a different sub series to the Chronicals of Myth, based in a different time period and a different dimension than 'Into the Shadows'. It also surrounds a different Mythical. This is the White Warrior sub series, and you do not need to read any specific book prior to reading this.

Humans think they understand their world. They believe the myths and legends of their world, to be nothing more than stories, created for the enjoyment of their young. They discredit the stories of magic, and higher powers. They trust that science is the truth, and that everything can be explained by it. They think that a world without magic, a land of logic, is better than a world filled with real whimsical dreams and beautiful stories. Without adventure, power, might. They think that true heroes are those who have never walked the road of pain, of magic, and of betrayal.
But what happens when the arrival of an ancient enemy awakens something more powerful, more ancient? Elder than dinosaurs, elder than the Earth? The very creature whose existence sparked a surging wildfire of life across the universe. An ancient warrior rises again, as the enemy nears.
How will the world deal with it, when their legends return to life? When it is revealed that every story is true? When everything they think they know, fails them? After all, how do you fight magic with technology? It helps when you uncover the myth of your legends.

Arise A Hero
Enter a fantasy world where two opposing gods remain trapped in another dimension, they exist outside the normal timelines of mortal men and are forced to spend their days in an eternal prison for a long forgotten crime. Only a mortal may travel back and forth between the two rifts that connect the god’s worlds and time. Two sects have monopolised access into these rifts, learning that with the control of the rifts comes a great power. An order of warriors and a brotherhood of magicians use them as their training grounds where men can train in their art to the extreme for years, unaffected by time; they can even die inside the rift, returning to life when their body is ejected back out to their world.

Powerful new crystals are discovered in the mines and the brotherhood of magician’s instigate a war to control this valuable resource that can bend the order of warriors to their will, ensuring total control and perhaps even the power to free their god.

Join us in a story about a fictional world that has roots to ours. With a set of outcast characters trying to save what is left of this dark world. As they venture trough this world they discover secrets like what has happened to this world, who/what they are, who to trust but most importantly if this world can still be saved. (I have had this story in my head for a good 10 years now. It might not be perfect, and my spelling is not the best. But thanks for joining me on my journey, and I hope I can finish what I always wanted to finish.... my story.)Kumpleto
The Aeon of Dragons: A Tale of Epic Fantasy & Sci-fi
Eighty thousand years into the future, Earth is no more. This world is now called Lokar-a realm of strangeness, where humans struggle to survive alongside elves, orcs, goblins, vampires, merfolk, and dragons. Born from the genetic-engineering science of our present age, these species now fight to rule a world of sword and sorcery, war and blood. But Lokar's story is more than this. In orbit, the Sky People dwell-a breakaway civilization from humanity's forgotten past. Mythical and unseen, save for the drifting lights of their stations in the night sky, their name is whispered in reverence and fear. To most, they are only a legend. Until the sky falls. When a steel ship crashes onto Lokar, myth becomes reality. From the wreckage emerges Morse, a girl named with fire-orange eyes, bearing secrets as ancient as Lokar itself. Drawn by adventure, a young Lokari named Jason must join forces with this enigmatic fire-eyed girl to uncover the mysteries of their intertwined pasts and face a destiny neither could have imagined. The fate of Lokar and the stars hangs by a thread. As the veil between legend and history tears away, a truth long buried will rise to shape a future yet unwritten. These secrets have been whispered for millennia. Now, Lokar must listen. ------- Note: I publish a chapter 3 times per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I also do all of my own art, which you can see in each chapter. If you'd like to see more art, especially the stuff I can't publish here (*wink wink*), you can find that on my Patreon. I believe in world-building and rich characters. I also believe in big ideas. There is a bit of steamy interaction between the characters, but it's not the main focus!

Shapeless Hero
Identity crisis? What's that? ---- An earthling's soul was born into an incompatible, human body. Their muscles misbehaved, their skin and body felt like a rigid shell, and their weak constitution left little options for any activities outside of paperwork, books and anything on a screen at home. Then the divine beings tried to correct the mistake and removed the mismatched soul from its unfitting body, slinging it to a distant world with a new body to control. The human flesh-prison replaced with the unlimited options of a shapeshifter, the soul has now a magic-filled world to explore. Grow fur for a mountain hike, grow gills and fins for a deep dive. It's time to catch up on decades worth of missed travels and activities. But who wants to deal with the flesh-craving predators called shapeshifters? Another global purge could start, if the freshly transferred soul shows its abilities too much. ---- The rankings are a mystery to me - especially after this story made it to No. 1 under the shapeshifter tag (and others). Welcome to fantasy amateur hours! This is my first time writing that kind of novel. Hopefully there's a bit of improvement along the way. Feel free to tell me what works or not! Occasionally drowning in irl-work, so chapters will be published semi-regularly, whenever I find some time to write. (Usually updated at least once per week.) If it wasn't obvious already: Cover art made by yours truly.
First Light of a New Age
In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves. How will they react of finding themselves in a world where people can split mountains or bend the fabric of space, and where beings exist that even conventional weapons cannot defeat? How will they survive against deadly monsters, superhumans, titanic creatures, gods, and eldritch forces that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.
